I am so happy fo show you two of the coolest Entranced covers EVER in today’s double cover reveal for Awakenings by Pitch Wars success story J.E Shannon and Adorned by Georgeann Swiger.Drum roll…..

Aren’t they GORGEOUS!So here’s the deets:

Awakenings will be available August 26!

Evie Shepard’s nightmare begins when she
finds herself buried alive, with no idea how she got that way. As she struggles
to remember what happened to her, she begins to notice changes about herself.
Her senses are heightened, her movements are quicker, she is incredibly
strong….her heartbeat has stopped. It’s then she makes a disturbing
discovery. She wasn’t buried alive. She was murdered. Somehow she has come
back…

When seventeen-year-old
Anya finds out she’s actually an angel being trained to protect humanity, she
discovers that becoming an angel has nothing to do with wings and haloes. For
Anya, becoming an angel has to do with death—her death.

Micah, the angelic
soldier ordered to protect her until she transitions from human to angel,
promises her death will be a glorious experience as long as she follows his
rules. But getting Anya through this life and to the next isn’t as simple as
Micah expects. His job becomes even more difficult after he unwittingly
performs a miracle that exposes Anya’s hidden angelic light.

With her secret out,
Hell’s legions begin targeting her. Unfortunately, Hell’s minions are the least
of Micah’s worries. He’s more concerned about the forbidden human emotions he’s
developed toward Anya.Even more
troubling, is she seems to love him too. And giving in to those feelings, could
mean dire consequences for them both.

Hash tags are a fantastic Twitter tool and Follow Friday, aka #FF, is a fantastic way to share the love and get your twitter friends some followers.

But it’s one of the hash tags that I believe is used the least effectively. Clumping a large group of people together with a #FF tacked on is hardly going to inspire your followers to start following one of your recommendations. And retweeting a group like that tends to frustrate people as it clogs up @ streams. And if you’re retweeting it to show your followers you have a #FF I would ask why? They’re already following you.

I try to make my #FF tweets meaningful and to justify to my followers why I believe the person I’m tweeting about is worth a follow. I try to minimise how many people I put into a #FF tweet, with the exception of my group blogs as their involvement in the blog is the reason.

So here’s some of my favourites from today:

Remember – give your followers a reason why they would find your #FF recommendations interesting and you’re more likely to share the love successfully and possibly get cool #FFs in return.

So what are some of your favourite #FFs that have been about you? And what makes you click on a #FF recommendation?

It’s about a week until my full cover reveal, and I’m so excited. I’m very grateful to all my blogger, twitter, writer and Inkpop friends who have signed up so far. If you haven’t gotten in on the action yet, you can sign up here!

SLEEPER is my debut novel and is a New Adult Speculative Fiction. I’m excited that Entranced publishing has faith that New Adult is more than just sexed up YA contemporary.

About Sleeper

After a life saving heart transplant, eighteen-year-old Mishca Richardson is plagued by nightmares and an urgent desire to find her birth parents, which she puts down to post-operation depression. But her new heart seems to bring more than a second chance at life in the form of speed, strength and love at first sight.

About me:
Sharon is a writer from Mackay in Queensland, Australia who has short stories published in anthologies and was also runner-up in the Australian Literary Review’s Young Adult short story contest with Karma. By day she is a public relations executive and by night she writes weird fiction and soulful contemporaries while her husband, two sons and cat are fast asleep.

The cover
This is just a small part of the gorgeous cover, but hopefully it’ll tempt you to want to see more. A bonus is everyone involved in the cover reveal get to see it early. And you can see for yourself why people have been so blown away by it so far.

Here’s some things about the cover:

It blasts away the YA and NA cover trends of the last year (there’s no unnecessary formal dress, no red writing, no face so obscured that you don’t no what they look like).

The MC looks how the MC should look! Mishca is of African-American descent and the model matches – no white wash!

It has a distinctive Aussie flavour to it – which I love seeing as the novel is set in Australia.

It’s a cover that will mean a lot more to you after you’ve finished the book as the symbolism is perfect.

So if you have a blog or a Tumblr then you can sign up to be part of the reveal, and if you’ve got Twitter or Facebook then you can share the reveal post on Friday, May 3.

Seth’s heart is breaking. He knows his decision will hurt the one person he keeps breathing for, but he can’t take it anymore. He can’t be near Grace knowing she will always be just out of reach.

Grace is oblivious to Seth’s turmoil. She loves him unconditionally, but not in the way he wants. They both know that in Heaven physical love is forbidden, and to break the rules is to defy everything they’ve ever been taught.

When Grace and Seth are sent on a mission to save a young mother and her unborn child, Grace must face the fact that Seth won’t be returning home. She doesn’t understand Seth’s decision and hates him for it. But what neither of them realise is how big a part that single decision will play in shaping their entire future.

AUTHOR BIO
K. A. Last was born in Subiaco, Western Australia, and moved to Sydney with her parents and older brother when she was eight. Artistic and creative by nature, she studied Graphic Design and graduated with an Advanced Diploma. After marrying her high school sweetheart, she concentrated on her career before settling into family life. Blessed with a vivid imagination, she began writing to let off creative steam, and fell in love with it. She now resides in a peaceful leafy suburb north of Sydney with her husband, their two children and a rabbit named Twitch.

Beau Baily is suffering from a post break-up meltdown when she happens across a knife in her local park and takes it home. Less than a week later the new boy in school has her trapped in an alley; he’s sprouted horns and is going to kill boy unless she hands over the knife. Until Eighteenth Century gargoyle, Jack shows up and saves her. Jack has woken from a century long slumber to tell Beau that she’s accidentally been drafted into a power struggle between two immortal races: Demons and Gargoyles. The knife she picked up is the only one in existence capable of killing immortals and they’ll tear the world apart to get it back. To draw the warring immortals away from her home, Beau decides go with Jack to Bulgaria in search of the mind-bending realm known as the Underworld, a place where they’ll hopefully be able to destroy the knife and prevent all hell from breaking loose. That is providing they can outrun the demons that are chasing them. .
